I just wanted to mention that this was my first time to Gamemasters, and it may have been the best run tournament of this size (its tough to compare to Waterbury) I've been to since I've started playing.  The rounds were extremely smooth, tables were great, rulings were good, $20 is a bit high, but the prize support was there given the attendance didn't hit 40.  Good stuff all around; nice job Ashok.

Yeah, this place gets major props for sending me home with a lotus instead of a mox.  I'm gonna have to make these more often.

Cool breakdown, no reason to ask us to bear with you, actually Very Happy.

I'd really appreciate it if you could find time to make an additional breakdown that shows where which decks ended up in the end in addition to the number of each decktype played. That would give us an even better look at how each decktype performed in comparison to the other decktypes and the number of them played.
I know it's a lot of work (I did that for Dülmen twice or thrice), but I feel it is the best way to get information how the decks perform compared to each other (as I don't see a way to actually factor in playskill into such a breakdown).
